Language Barrier

Most Americans can express themselves and be understood, but, what if a person doesn’t speak English or doesn’t speak English well? It is a huge problem for the person caught up in the DHS meat grinder. 

Some of the facilities being utilized are not safe for extended detentions beyond 12 hours. 

One of the advocacy that aligns with these arrests and detentions is that human beings may not know their rights. What if a human being is detained without knowing their rights or believing there is no other recourse except living through the detention with hopes for being heard. Judges are sensitive to the fact language barriers are significant obstacles to receiving the truth. What if a human being never makes it to a judge for whatever reason they don’t and are handicapped or disabled in some way.

It is my opinion DHS currently is in violation of human rights. How do we get that changed? When does the cruelty of ICE come under control? 

State governments have a responsibility to their citizens and any human being within those borders. State governors need to take example of Governor Pritzker who asked the public to continue to record and post to sites familiar to government events of ICE activities. That is a reasonable request. That action is not activism, it is an accounting of agent activity who believes they are above the law and accountability.

This is real. DHS is not operating safely. That is a known fact. The American public following ICE are not interested in attacking agents; they are most interested in protecting life.
